East Asia

Creative rationale

Over the South China Sea near the coast of southern China, an intense low-pressure system creates dramatic atmospheric turbulence. The extremely low sea-level pressure of 912.8 hPa with steep gradients suggests a powerful weather system, while moderate winds and high humidity indicate active convection. I interpret this as explosive color bursts concentrated at the canvas edges, with the low pressure driving heavy saturation pools of ultramarine blue and cadmium red, while the moderate wind energy creates yellow and green splatters radiating inward, leaving Francis's characteristic luminous white breathing space in the center.
